How Farncombe compares
Small towns rarely get published solar figures, so here are the numbers for Farncombe. It is one of 47 Surrey towns we track, and it ranks 6th of 47 for solar yield, a town of 13,780 people in the House of Commons Library settlement data. PVGIS gives its roofs 1,034 kWh per kWp a year, 2.83 peak sun hours a day averaged across the seasons, and the standard 12 panel model turns that into £924 of year one benefit, £247 of it from your own generation and £677 from export at 12p.
Treat these as calibration rather than a quote. The calculator below runs the same model, defaulted to Farncombe's own yield, and at Farncombe's 1,034 kWh per kWp it prices a 12 panel system at £6,360 installed before any battery. Your free design call reworks every number for your actual roof, its shading and your usage.
Planning applications here go through Waverley; nationally, the House of Commons Library classes Farncombe as a small town.
The charger is in the installed price but left out of payback: charging savings depend on your mileage and tariff, which the design call models properly.

A 12 panel, 6.36 kWp system in Farncombe generates around 6,576 kWh a year, worth around £923 in year one on the 12p export scenario.
Generation is modelled from PVGIS satellite data for Farncombe's own coordinates (51.19872, -0.61802), using the same 26.32p/kWh import value and £1,000 per kWp installed pricing as every Clearline estimate, with the full methodology, sourcing and assumptions set out on our help page.

What does a typical solar system cost in Farncombe?

A minority, usually larger systems, need the fuller G99 process instead. Your design call checks which applies in Farncombe before anything is booked; our G98 vs G99 guide explains the difference in full.

How long do solar panels last? 25 to 30 years, in practice
The panels outlast the inverter by a wide margin. Plan for that, not for cleaning.
Read the guide →Does a standalone battery actually pay back?
No panels means one job: buy cheap, use later. The tariff decides whether it pays.
Read the guide →Three phase and EV charging: what actually changes
Three phase buys 22kW charging. Most cars cannot use it, and load balancing usually solves the real problem.
Read the guide →How much does a heat pump cost? The 2026 numbers, before and after the grant
UK median installed cost around £12,908, before the up to £7,500 grant comes off.
Read the guide →Why the best export rates always carry conditions
The top export rates are acquisition offers. Here is how to price the condition.
